Chapter 450 The Friendship Between De and Ha Finally Takes Shape! The Team Formation of the Friends!
Chapter 450 The Friendship Between De and Ha Finally Takes Shape! The Team Formation of the Friends!
Harry wasn't fooled by Draco's logic.
Insulting someone and getting beaten up are two different things, even though there is a cause-and-effect relationship between them.
It is only natural that those who actively commit malicious acts will be met with retaliation from the victims.
We cannot assume that the matter is even and that there is no need for an apology.
The phrase "we're even" only holds true if it's uttered by the victim after both parties have openly and honestly discussed and reached a settlement.
Those who actively insult and harm others have no right to say that things are "even."
Having grown up with Dudley, Harry's logical thinking was well-developed and he became very sensible.
He didn't know why his cousin, who valued Draco highly, had never reminded Draco of this issue.
But now that he and Draco have come to this point, he'll make everything clear.
Harry explained his thoughts and logic to Draco in detail.
Draco suddenly felt he had no reason to feel wronged.
Moreover, he examined his own heart.
He didn't want to apologize to Harry before, not only because he felt wronged after being beaten, but also because he was afraid that he would lose face if he took the initiative to apologize.
At the same time, they also fear that the friendship gained through an apology will be too humble.
He didn't want to be inferior to Harry after becoming friends with him.
But now it seems that these thoughts were indeed unfounded.
How could someone like Harry hold a grudge about his apology and use it to elevate himself to a superior position in the friendship?
Harry had misunderstood him and apologized quickly; clearly, Harry never intended to be inferior to him because of it.
And yet he wasted such a long period of time for such a ridiculous reason.
If Harry hadn't told him the truth today, he would definitely have continued to struggle with it.
That was absolutely wrong.
Draco, feeling deeply ashamed, quickly turned to his henchman Goyle and said:
"You should go back first, Gore. You should also start paying more attention to forming a team. It would be best to find teammates who can help you solidify your resolve."
"I understand, Mr. Malfoy."
Gore scratched his chubby head and turned to leave.
Draco turned sideways, watching Goyle disappear around the corner of the corridor in the distance. He looked around to make sure no one else was passing by before turning to Harry with shame and bowing his head slightly.
"I'm sorry, Potter. It was my fault back then, and I apologize. Would you like to be my friend? And would you like to team up with me?"
Harry smiled upon hearing this.
He smiled sincerely and brightly.
"As I said before, I agree."
Harry said, "I agree to team up with you, but you'll have to get the consent of the other two teammates—Cho Chang and Cedric."
I agree to be your friend, but you must also offer the same apology to Hermione, Ron, Neville, and my cousin.
Draco looked up with delight and met Harry's sincere gaze, his eyes immediately brightening.
"I will."
"By the way, stop calling me Poot. My friends all like to call me Harry."
"Ok!"
Harry and Draco reached a complete reconciliation, resolved their differences, and became friends.
Dudley, who was busy writing books, preparing lessons, and monitoring the situation between black and white wizards, suddenly received a reward notification from the system.
【Congratulations to the host! 】
[Successfully resolved a Class A regrettable incident - the friendship between DeHa that began but ended immediately!]
Through long-term verbal and physical instruction, the host has had a profound and positive influence on Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter's understanding of each other's thoughts, enabling them to understand each other.
Furthermore, it broke the deadlock in the original story where Draco Malfoy was troubled by his parents, family, and pure-blood status, and objectively created the conditions for Draco and Harry to develop a friendship.
Ultimately, the 'Four Houses United Team' system implemented by the host provided an opportunity for Draco and Harry to completely break down their barriers, and the two successfully reconciled and became friends.
This unfortunate incident has been resolved perfectly.
[Special offer, fixed reward: 1 A-level fusion opportunity.]
[Bonus Reward: 1 A-Rank Fusion Opportunity.]
[Currently available magical item fusion opportunities: S-rank *1 time, A-rank *8 times, B-rank *6 times, C-rank *3 times.]
After silently listening to the system prompts, I accepted the system reward.
Despite his busy schedule, Dudley's gaze pierced through the many obstacles and saw Harry and Draco shaking hands and making peace in the corridor.
He then smiled and continued with his work.
Draco kept his word.
After parting ways with Harry, he found Hermione, Ron, Neville, Cho Chang, Cedric, and Dudley one by one, apologizing to those who needed to and asking to team up with those who wanted to.
Draco's changes were evident to all his friends, and no one rejected his apology.
Cho Chang, Cedric, and Draco were all good friends, serving as branch representatives for their respective houses in Dudley's class and even preparing Christmas gifts for him together.
Therefore, the result was excellent.
Draco gained several more true friends and finally joined Harry's team.
Currently, Harry and Draco are in their second year, Cho Chang is in her third year, and Cedric is in his fourth year.
According to the rule that the four colleges' joint team cannot be formed with more than one grade level between them, they just met the requirements.
A few days later...
Hermione, Ron, and Neville have also formed their own teams.
Hermione and Ron, along with Susan Bornes of Houndhouse, Terry Boot of Ravenhouse, and Derian Puse of Slytherin, formed a team.
Susan's aunt is Amelia Bornes, the fair and kind current head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. She comes from a family with excellent values and is inherently kind.
In the original story, Terry joined Dumbledore's Army, which Harry formed in his fifth year. He was also a kind-hearted young wizard.
And Derian Pursey, the Chaser of the Slytherin Quidditch team, is a half-snake, and an orderly snake who has been able to follow the rules from the very beginning.
Hermione had a good eye, and the teammates she found suited Ron's taste. After a little practice, the five of them were able to work together to overcome difficulties.
As for Neville, his teammates were Hannah Abbott of Houndhouse, Anthony Goldstein of Eaglehouse, and Gregory Goyle of Slytherin.
Hannah, the "Iron-Hat Queen," needs no introduction. In the original story, she became the prefect of Hufflepuff in her fifth year and married Neville after graduation.
In the original story, Anthony also became a prefect in his fifth year and was a member of Dumbledore's Army.
Goyle is Draco's sidekick, and his name is Gregory.
Having changed his mind, he accepted Draco's offer and found Neville, the disciplinary officer who wielded the Hogwarts whip, to be his teammate.
He thought that no one could be more steadfast in his convictions than Neville.
When Draco heard about Goyle's choice later, he was very surprised and exclaimed that Goyle was a ruthless person.
If Goyle makes a mistake, even if Neville doesn't punish him, the Hogwarts whip, imbued with Dudley's principles of justice, will surely strike him automatically.
It's impossible not to be firm in this mindset.
